Blu3W Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Hey guys, i just got myself a new computer the other day and i was just going though the PBSS that was taken dueing a couple of our matches when i found out mine was black. I remember it being something with in the NVIDIA Control panel but i cant remember want Anti Aliaising it was that had to be changed. Can someone post a ss of what the settings should be please, or just tell me what they are. By the way im running a 8600GT graphics card. Thanks for any help Blu3W
AcE Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Click on the Nvidia systray icon, Performance & quality settings > Antialiasing settings. From there you can adjust with a preview or manage AA settings manually for each game. You can also get to it (if no systray icon) from the control panel, Nvidia Control Panel. I wouldn't be surprised if turning it off doesn't fix it. Turn all AA settings off / none
Blu3W Posted September 4, 2008 Author Posted September 4, 2008 Thanks for the quick reply pal. All done hope for the best now
evilzombie Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 I've always run my AA off & I still get black SS :(
AfeX^ruari Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 :( im begging to thing nvidia with AA is the haxor nubs card of choice...!
Ice Man Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 rofl... I have two separate computers with nvidia 8600gt (ones a lappy with the mobile version and one is a desktop) both of them return black ss... maybe its just that card :) let me know if it fixes your issue
Blu3W Posted September 4, 2008 Author Posted September 4, 2008 Well i had to do the same for CoD UO also, and they dont return Blacks now seems to work fine here now :)
RoadWarrior Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 My 8800GT OC2 constantly returns black shots, and some even come back as failed capture. Latest drivers, AA off, etc. Some driver revisions in the past returned clean shots, and then a new update would cause black/fail, next would be clean, etc. More of a driver issue than anything.
-EPC- Koudelka Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 As far as I know there are indeed certain Graphics cards that produce black screenshots.. I've got a Geforce 8800GTX with the newest drivers, and I have black screenshots aswell.. I guess there's not much to do until Nvidia changes the drivers or the way they work somehow..
::DFC::Postman Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I have dual 8800GT cards in SLI and also black screenshots in vista, not much I can do about it
RoadWarrior Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Fresh install of Vista, and a newer 9800GTX+ SC card, same result. Not limited to the 8-series, btw. I always install the latest drivers, rather than what came on the CD with the card after a format. CD's with vid-cards are a waste of space in the box they come in, imo. Usually out-dated before it ships, let alone when you buy it.
